"Never give in-never, never, never, in nothing great or small, large or petty, never give in to convictions of honor and good sense. Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy!" - Winston Churchill

A lot more options than IE, or than Proxomitron? If you're talking about the latter, I have to disagree... Proxomitron allows you to write your own rules, making the possibilities nearly endless... MyIE2 is a nice browser-enhancement, though

I use something called MiddleMan, it can be found on freshmeat (or you can google for it). It seems good.

It's also a privacy-increasing proxy server. It can remove headers, remove ad images and do other clever stuff I haven't worked out yet.

Unfortunately its configurability is limited for those who don't understand Perl regular expressions (i.e. most people). It does have a web UI, but requires that regular expressions are used for wildcards etc.

3. Proxy chaining:

Chaining proxies is quite simple. Normally a proxy will connect directly to the target sites. Each non-terminal proxy must be configured to use the next one in the chain, for example, if you run your own LAN, you could configure your local LAN proxy to use your ISP's proxy. However, their proxy will connect directly unless *they* configure it to do otherwise. You can also make a proxy use a different method for different sites.

For example, your LAN proxy could be instructed to connect directly to intranet sites with your private domain name, and use the ISP's proxy for anything else.

The method of actually configuring the proxies is of course software-specific.
